At the end of the May Day holiday, the restrictions on the transportation of high-speed dangerous chemicals were lifted, the demand for vehicles increased after the holiday, the maintenance of superimposed liquid plants increased, the supply tightened, the inventory of enterprises was low, and the price of imported gas rose, which led to the straight-line rise of domestic liquid price.
